Cuddles was born on 12/25/95 and left this world for the rainbow bridge on 9/9/06. He loved Christmas and Santa very much. He was in a house fire when he was young, and amazingly survived. When Max came over for the first time, Cuddles liked him and taught Max to play because Max never knew how to just be a dog. Cuddles was diagnosed with an enlarged heart and like the little trooper he was took his meds daily. He told us it was time for him to go be with Max and we let him go, though painful as if was. We know he'll be waiting at the Rainbow Bridge for us and eating McDonalds everyday until then (hope he doesn't get too chubby).
